Notion Search Issue on Alfred: Unable to Open Pages in Native App

Open tkm5 opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

When using the Notion search feature within Alfred, selecting the option to open pages in the native app does not work as expected. Despite choosing this option, the relevant pages fail to open.

Are you still experiencing this issue?

Yes ... It is still going on.

Hmm not quite sure what could be causing that. Certainly haven't heard any other reports like this.

Would suggest double checking you have the notion mac app installed, and that the correct options are set in the notion workflow. Other than that, I'm out of suggestions.

If Notion is open in the background, it works correctly, but if it is not running in the background, it opens the previously closed page and does not go to the page you have searched for and selected. If the application is set to use a web app, it works correctly.

Thanks - I think thats mostly expected, the behaviour you see.

There is another issue which details a way to open a page in the app in a new window. I suspect this could help here too, lets see in the next release.
